THEME: "Emerging Challenges and Advances in Neurology and Neuropsychiatry"
Cognitive impairment causes cognitive changes that
are serious enough to be noticed by the individuals experiencing them or to
other people, but the changes are not severe enough to interfere with daily
life or independent function. It means they have trouble with things like
memory or paying attention. They might have trouble speaking or understanding.
And they might have difficulty recognising people, places or things, and might
find new places or situations overwhelming.
